70 Horrible Questions | ACCEPTING
4. Are you insecure?
“…No. I don’t have any reason tuh’ be. You made sure a’ that, didn’t you? I mean, why else would you a’ put half a’ Sonorous intuh’ mah hands? Aside from the obvious, a’course. I’m a capable man, sugar. Ain’t no challengin’ that.”
12. Have you ever stayed up 48 hours?
“Not sure. If I have, I don’t remember it. Mah beauty rest is important tuh’ me.”
14. Do you miss someone?
“Mah sister, maybe. I think about her an’ her lil’ girl from time to time–how they’re doin’, how they look now. Then again, I guess her daughter ain’t so lil’ anymore after ten years. I wonder if mah mama’s still alive, too. There are days where I might like tuh’ see ‘em all again, but I know better than tuh’ dwell.”
52. Do you believe everything happens for a reason?
“I used to. Hell, it used tuh’ be the only thing that got me through the goddamn day after I left home. I mean, when yer freezin’ tuh’ death on an empty stomach, wonderin’ when the hell ‘God’ is gonna stop punishin’ you, it’s all you’ve got against goin’ insane. I’ve long since learned it’s bullshit–sometimes bad things jus’ happen tuh’ good people, an’ vice versa.”
